"Metamorphosis" lyrics

From first light

Born into life
Molding the mind
Carving and
Harming my psyche
You'll see as time
Continues to
Grow, flowers unfold
And colors will show
Though why am I
So black and white
Grayscale
Fulfills my sight
Adolescent eyes
Already recognize
These thoughts
Won't subside

So turn
Onto your shoulder
Fire to smolder
It's over
The air at night
Only gets colder
As each moment passes
This body grows older
And the more I realize
Life is over

Every night
Eyes locked
To the ceiling
Wondering
What it's like
Not to feel these feelings

Take it away
So there is
Nothing
Empty smiles
They all meant
Nothing
Black of my heart
I will call you
Nothing
Seven letters
And they all mean
Nothing

What do I do
I am an empty shell
Isn't this all
That I ever wanted
I can no longer tell
I have looked through and through
Survived every fall that I've fell
Dire days have left me daunted
When will I be myself

You
Must have mistaken me
For another soul
I
Will never forfeit my life
Or give you control
We
May both breathe
But you are nothing like me
You are nothing like me
They
May say many things
But can only speak
From what they read

Witness
Metamorphosis
